Crockpot Cheese Scalloped Potatoes:

I made this for the first time yesterday for dinner and it was good. The only thing I would do different next time, is use a little more flour to make the roux so the sauce is thicker. If you have a big family to feed you may want to double the ingredients.

6 Large Potatoes, Peeled & Thinly Sliced

***I Think It Would Be Ok, To Just Leave The Peels On, If You Prefer

1 Medium Onion, Peeled & Chopped

4 T. Butter

1/4 Cup Plus 1 T. All-Purpose Flour

1 Tsp. Salt-(I Didn't Use That Much)

1/8 Tsp. Pepper-(I Added More)

2 Cups Milk

2 T. Heavy Whipping Cream-(Opt.)-I Didn't Have Any But I Think It Would Be Good With It

1-1/3 Cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Spray crockpot with cooking spray.

Layer crockpot with potatoes then onions.

Keep doing this until no more remain.

In a large pot, add butter, flour, salt and pepper.

Over medium low heat, stir until butter is melted.

Gradually whisk in milk and cream until no lumps remain.

While stirring, cook until bubbly and thickened.

Stir in cheese to melt, about 10 minutes.

Pour cheese sauce over, stir.

Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 5 to 7 hours.

***I turned it on high for awhile to make sure they got tender, when they seemed a little tough yet during the cooking time.
